BLEASE TELLS WHY HE READ AFRO ARTICLE INTO RECORD Attendance Of Two Races At D. C. "Nation" Dinner Termed Equality MRS. TERRELL, BROOKS, NEVAL THOMAS THERE Mance Wilkinson, Named As Southernner Who Supports His Views WASHINGTON, D. C. "The people of South Carolina will oppose the election of any man as President of the United States who believes in social equality and does not draw the color line." Senator Coleman L. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina, made this statement in an interview Tuesday, explaining his insertion into the Congressional Record of an article from the Baltimore AFRO-AMENI committee, the Owald Garrison Vilhied dinners. "My reason for putting that article in the Congressional Record is that the Senate of the South to know the real conditions in Washington and to further know that there are men in politics in the nation who are willing to eat at the same table with colored men and associate with them on equal terms. Senator Blease added, "Of course, the men in their business if they desire to do so, but it is our business to protect ourselves from placing in office any man who might attempt to some conditions upon us in the Senate." Senator Walsh It is believed that Senator Blease had reference to Senator Thomas J. Walsh, Democrat, of Montana, who is a candidate for the Democrat nomination, when he issued the Congressional Record and made his original statement that "some men do not mind associating at the table with certain other people, but the people for that kind of a man for President of the United States." Four Senators At Dinner Senator Walsh was one of four Senators who attended the dinner in honor of the tenth anniversary of Mr. Villard's editorship and was at the Washington Hotel where Senator Blease lives, on March 1. There were three other Senators present. Senator Gerald P. Nykovich, publicist, and Senator Burton K. Wheeler, Democrat, of Montana, was one of the speakers.

City's 'Nation' Dinner Most Memorable In Series-Villard Villard Commends Local Committee—"Nation" Found The Baltimore dinner had given him the real kick of the series, Oswald Garrison Villard, declared at the climax of the local "Nation" dinner at the home of Miss Elizabeth Gilman, where 127 guests joined in paying tribute to the grandson of William Lloyd Garrison, one of America's foremost editors and champions of human rights. In a jocular, yet serious vein, Mr. Villard declared that the peace and harmony in the other dinner was the result of the climax of the experiences of the local committee. In paying a tribute to Miss Elizabeth Gilman and members of the committee, he recalled that he had been the original backer of the "Nation." Breack Shackles The Nation, he said, and the old "Liberator", which preceded it, came into existence for the express purpose of taking the power to help these people who had been in bondage for 280 years find a proper place in the country. It had always been the determination of its mission to devote a space to unpopular causes. The present dinner, because of the difficulty the committee had in finding a place to hold it, had given him another "glorious chance to stand up to the principles of humanity." That the "Nation" and the spirit it fostered may not be the same as the one he promised his hope that these series of dinners would bring behind it a growing group of subscribers and subscribers. Indra Frank Presides In an opening statement presenting Judge Ell Frank as master of ceremonies, Rabbi Morris S. Lazaron of Madison Square Temple, stated that "because he belied in him that believed in the good of man," he issued a good Krutch, dramatic editoe of the Nation, born, he says, in Tennessee, but often called a "northerner" in the South and a "southern" in the North, and O'Neill America's greatest dramatist. Quotes Cullen Arthur Garfur Hayes, director of the American Civil Liberties Union, and one of the attorneys in the case, said that the diffs between the committee had had in getting a place to hold the dinner was a darn good chance to stand up for a soccer deal." Mr. Hayes voted Countee Cullen's poem, "Baltimore", and attributed as slavish "fear" on the part of men and women to break through outworn communities and to have relatives accord to their own consciences. He also severely arranged the government for its aggressive intervention in smaller countries, declaring that the government should rejoice if Sandino should get the best of the marines". Mencken's Letter In a letter expressing his regret that he could not be present on account of a minor operation, referred to jocuently by the toastmaster as "operated by the same person" in "incurred his airspace," Henry L Mencken said, "Don't have any fear; the Kul Klux Klan may heave a possum or a couple of wolves the will have to do worse." The dinner ended peacefully after the committee had spent a hectic week finding a place where white and colored men were to meet to Miss Elizabeth Gilman, practically hotel and public dining room in the city had an opportunity to register its policy on this matter. The committee was first arranged at the Southern Hotel, service was withdrawn when the committee faced, told them that colored guests would have to attend if they were barred. At first, colored guests were advised that some difficulty might arise if they tried to attend the dinner, but Villard when informed the ban on colored men flatly refused to attend if they were barred. **Celling Caved In** It was then transferred to the Arundel Hall, but fortunately the mission mission, when the ban on colored men flatly refused to attend if they were barred.

In their petition of complaint, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters to investigate the practice of tipping porters and to require the Pullman Company to cease and desist from encouraging or permitting the tipping practice. Three Dissent Three of the commissioners dissented from the decision. They cited Glyde B. Aitchison, Joseph B. Eastman and Ernest L. Lewis. In their dissenting opinion, they stated that the complaint seems to be a misapplicaiton, if established, may constitute violation of law, which we should investigate further than can be done by mere inspection of the complaint and the argument made. The commissioners signed the majority opinion written. John J. Esch, Baltimore M. F. Campbell, T. H. Malline, Thomas F. Woodlock, Frank McKinnon, Thomas F. Woodlock, Richard V. Taylor, and Ezra Brahner, Jr. In giving their opinion, the commissioners stated that they regarded the real objective sought was the increase in wages and pay of porters and managers in the service that the Commission has no power to regulate wages. Attorneys for the porters argued that the wage of $72.50 per month is the amount of part of the salary the Pulman Company expected them to make, and that this wage was fixed after taking into consideration the amount of the wage. The average amount in tips each month received by porters was given as $56.

Before the bishops realized that the public was present, important bits of information had been given out. One item involved the name of a concessional officials, for which $000 was realized. It is claimed that this money was divided between Dr. W. H. Goler, financial secretary of the church, and Bishop J. H. Johnson, of the finance committee of bishops. It is claimed that Bishop Kyle received $000 of the money. It was further claimed that when Professor J. H. Johnson, N.G.

Mission Work Another item brought up was a check for $2,841 which was to have gone for the mission work they were doing. When this item was brought up, both bishops denied receiving the money. The returned cancelled check disclosed the fact that it had been cashed in Winston-Salem, C. the home town of Clydes. When other revelations were made as the vouchers, checks and records were gone over, the bishops hurried got together and referenced the committee which was instructed to make a thorough audit of the records of Dr. Goler.

Madden; when the mentioning of his name was hissed and hooted by more than 4,500 voters called in a mass meeting rally at the First Regiment Armory to boost organization candidates Sunday.

Halts Speaker Starting from the galleries with the group in the lobby, which gave into deafening cries and hoots and Mayor Thompson had to stop speaking. Coming to the rescue, Roscoe C. Simmons well known and esteemed, and with the Thompson-Small state and county candidates, made an attempt to get the ear of the crowd. At the mention of Madden's name, he too, was voicelessly Subject Changed Simmons then changed the subject, suggesting that although Mayor Thompson had started the demand for a situation might arise where the president would decline and that then the Coolidge supporters might make Thompson a candidate, brought forth lots of applause and the Mayor arose and bowed his acknowledgment and thanks. Opposition to Madden comes from the fact that he is developing as a winning candidate for Congress from his district. There has been a growing demand that it is not only limited to Congress, but that the Madden district, now four-fifth colored should certainly be represented by a race man, presided over the meeting and other speakers included: Governor Len Small, State's Attorney Grove and State Senator John Bail, the platform were Admiral Louis B.

So Called Christian He beated the so-called Christian of today who lets racial prejudice influence him in every step he takes. He painted a picture of the future world where all men would be united under the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. "We cannot expect a country which has gone through 250 years of slavery to get rid of his race prejudice in a few years. Dr. Johnson said, that "nature"表现 too much of human nature."

TARVER OPENS FIRE ON HOWARD PREXY Congressman Riled As He Reads Dr. Johnson's Speech From The Afro RACE EQUALITY THEORY IS TERMED DAMNABLE "Alleged" Doctor — "Half White" Are Offensive Terms Used By Tarver WASHINGTON, D. C.—The attention of the House of Representatives was directed by Rep. Malcolm C. Tarver, Democrat, of Georgia. Wednesday, to a speech by Dr. Mordecal W. Johnson, president of Howard University, advocating social equality and amalgamation of the white and colored races through intermarriage. After reading excerpts of Dr. Johnson's speech, "The Baltimore AFRO-AMERICAN, Mr. Tarver said: 'This damnable doctrine which I have read is that promulgated by the mum at the head of the committee which few days ago you appropriated the sum of $390,000. He is going around about the country spreading among the members of the students of Howard University, this rotten, indecent doctrine on marriage between the white and African races.'" "I call attention to this fact," he said, "in order that every fair-minded determine for himself whether or not he wants to vote in favor of a new legalizing approach, or engaged in teaching among the members of the Negro race the damnable doctrine of social equality in intermarriage with the white people." 253 Voted On the 26th of February, in this Hall, 353 members of this house voted for an appropriation of $900,000 to Negroes in the head, and it goes without saying that every dollar of that appropriation which directly or indirectly benefits Negroes in the land that I have referred to, is an injury to the Negro race instead of a benefit. Bringing Up The AFRO He Said. On the front page of this paper, almost side by side with the article that I have read, appears the news congress voted for that appropriation. May God have mercy on them Interrupted Interrupted by Rep. John D. Clark (Rep. N. Y.), who asked Tanner checked up to find out if Dr. Johnson was correctly quoted. Tanner ad- mitted he had it. Tarver Riled He added certainly I do not con- ceive it to be my duty to confer with the king, and I think it to be whether or not he made the state statement attributed to him. Personally, in using the word "doctor" in con- NECTION with the country, as behind about the country, it is used in that connection in the news article, and I say that, in my judgment, any almost-white Negro, as he is, the king, is about the country, vocating the inter-marriage of the races and the alleged right of Negroes to marriage with white wom- en, should not be designated by any decent white man in the term "doctor" in connection with his name.

P.'S BORROW $55,000 HERE Frozen Out In Wheeling, Knights Appealed To National Benefit Co. WASHINGTON. — Announcement has just been made by Mr. R. H. Rutherford, President of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, the organization, that awarded agreements to loan $55,000.00 to the Wheeling Pythian Association, on the erection of a modern office building by that association, on the site known as premises 1025-Chapline street, Wheeling, W. Va. The Pythians have held title to this property for some time, having purchased it for a moderate figure when Chapline was a closed street; but the property was later connected through connection with the main boulevard leading out of Wheeling, and this property, is now in the heart of the business center of the city. Real estate barons have advocated to buy out the Pythians, retaliated by making it impossible for them to be financed. It was reported that these institutions kept the Pythians in suspense from time to time, and down or quoted such onerous terms that they were unthinkable. The Pythianists conferred with The National Benefit Life Insurance Company to establish a modern office building, including stores, a theatre and auditorium, and the loan was made. The plans are now underway for the building of Building Inspection of Wheeling authorizing Samuel Plato, race contractor, of Louisville, Kentucky, to erect the building and the present dwellings has already started. The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. Lollipop's Letter Lollipop's Letter Dearest Lollipop: The Lenten season is on — but you'd never know it. People don't know. They certainly don't seem to deny themselves a thing. Last week was full of affairs — small, intimate and valuable. Let me tell you about these. Parties Quite the loveliest one of the season was given last week by Florence Brooks Waters, when she entertained the Cloetis Club and guests, numbering in all about 35 ladies, who well-appointed, and shows such exquisite taste, — the ladies all looked particularly charming. — the Bridge playing was snappy, — and the evening was brought to a most successful close by the serving of a sumptuous supper I tasted such luscious lobster salad. The prizes were oh! so desirable — linen Bridge sets with pink linen pillows, full bounce so much in vogue now, and gilt-edge decks of cards. **The Blue Birds** Marie Winters, our linen her club at Bridge last week. This is one of Washington's exclusive clubs and they have established outie a reputation for themselves as hostesses in the last word. When the club meets for cards, it is usually a closed affair, and outside friends are invited to join in. There are more than 3 or 4. Marie Lyon of Baltimore motor over to get a peep at a few of her Washington friends, and a reception around the festive board, and satisfaction was manifested over the canonized chicken salad quite discernible to those who attended the extra trimmers. Prizes were lovely embroidered linen pillow cases. The B. B's. Daisy Glenn entertained these young ladies at Bridge, last Friday. Here is another club whose policy it is to entertain members only, so that an intimate. One Bridge party is very much like another, you know only the hostess injects her personality, especially in serving the supper. Daisy always has enjoyable parties and Francis Gervin won the prizes. The Matrons Annozean Flagg entertained about 24 ladies at Bridge, in honor of the Matrons last Saturday night. Bridge seems to be the ladies really put their thinking caps on. Annozean entertains so easily, and it's always a pleasure to see them. Mrs. Williston and Marie Fortune for the guests; and Dickie Fortune for the club. I did I tell you that Annozean has opened a most attractive dining room at her home. 1338 is street? It reminds you of some of the clever men in each Vilain, with its tete-a-tete nooks, high back benches (cushioned seats, however); oriental atmosphere AND the food is delicious and fun. In town I'll make it a point to take you around for a good meal. Last Saturday night, Fanny Gould and Angela Bishop entertained these girls at the former's spacious home in the city, about the interesting personnel of all these clubs at some future date — 'twil be interesting reading too. About 30 girls enjoyed the evening of those creamed oysters and mushrooms in patio shells, and all else that goes along. Louise Wesley, Estrida Sprain, Dr. Dennis and Forta Diana won the prizes. Some Birthday Party John T. Howe, familiarly called the "Duke of Argill" because of his aristocratic background, celebrated his 69th birthday last Thursday. About 20 gentlemen were graciously welcomed by Mrs. Howe, who hoped they would have as much pleasure celebrating her birthday as she had in preparing it. And after that the gentlemen needed no extra urging, and proceeded to enjoy their birthday with great joy. She was fit for the gods, and all the big guns and the little guns of the city gathered around. Mr. Walter Singleton was totomaster; he was brave and how they "roamed with Romulus and ripped with Euripides." in the wee sma' hours the gentlemen took their departure, after visit. The following friends gathered for this auspicious occasion: Messrs. Thomas H. H. R. Clark, Armond W. Scott, Richard C. Chandler, Edward L. Hancock, Helen H. Hancock, Philadelphia, Charles E. Hall, Charles L. Harris, Joseph Holland, F. D. Lee, William L. Simpkins, R. H. Stewart, Naval H. H. Thomas, John H. Thomas, Charles P. Ford, Arthur G. Free, Dr. Emmett J. Drs. Scott, J. E. H. Taylor, LeCount Cook and Herbert C Sourlock. Ft Basket Ball. Yes, the Basket Ball Beta Signa at the Lincoln Colonnade last Saturday afterb 35 to 17. These exceedingly popular games surely have the attraction and the games will continue to draw big crowds every Saturday until April 7th. After the game, dancing (including the bump) was enjoyed. Kwaka weeks playa Phi Beta Signa and there'll be another marathon. Charming is the word that characterizes Edna Lewis Thomas, who was the guest of Ione Lane. Edna has a prominent part in "Lulu Belle" which played the role of Edna, including the entire week. Of course, unless you could "pass" you were denied the privilege of seeing her show, — but who careds about it? Edna was feted to such an extent in Chicago and Pittsburgh that she pleaded to be allowed to lead the simple life here — but she managed to take in some refreshing drinks, review old friendships and enjoy a few suppers. **A Daddy** "Cute" Carter, senior in the Dental School, is the proud daughter of a dear friend, Frances Lydia.

C. — Although Dr. J. Hayden Johnson and the Rev. F. I. A. Bennett, members of the Board of Education, were advised of the improper use of the Wilson Normal School for the holding of meeting to arouse race hatred thru the advocacy of restrictive covenants, neither of them any protest at the board meeting, Wednesday. The Columbia Heights Citizens' Association, of which Alton B. Carty, 1234 Harvard street, northwest, is the president, met at the Wilson Normal school Tuesday night. At this meeting there was a lapse discussion of ways and means of preventing colored persons from buying and living in homes in Columbia Heights. During the meeting the word "miger" was frequently used. Speakers insisted that "niggers" might be morally and intellectually superior to whites of the neighborhood but uneasily of the neighborhood because they are a lower species of humans and can never equal the whites. Publishing Names The question of publishing the names of property owners in the locality who had refused to sign restrictive covenants was argued. The radical element of the organization declared that such persons should be tarred and feathered. The more objection element insisted that the publication of such names be had strategy. They counseled a "Christian" approach to those property owners who had not signed restrictive covenants. The covenant which formed the basis of the Curtis case was cited as the best form to be used to exclude colored persons from owning or occupying property in Columbia Heights. Each Block Organized Each block in the Columbia Heights neighborhood has a captain and a corps of workers making efforts to secure the signatures of the five percent of property owners who have refused to sign restrictive covenants. In twenty-five blocks all property owners have signed these agreements except seventy. Each block in the covenant is not binding until every property owner in that block has signed the covenant. The Columbia Heights Citizens' Association meets on the second Wednesday night in the auditorium of the Wilson Normal School.

The BABY A boy is sitting on the floor and playing with a toy. Just one warning: It is genuine Fletcher's Castoria that physicians recommend. Other preparations may be just as free from all doubtful drugs, but no child of this writer's is going to test them. Yet besides the book on castoria and feeding of babies the names with Fletcher's Castoria is worth its weight in gold. No mother in this enlightened age would give her baby something she did not know was perfectly harmless, especially when a few drops of plain Castoria rigorously stirred almost any little ill. Fretfulness and fever, too; it seems no time until everything is serene. That's the beauty of Castoria; its gentle influence seems just what is needed. It does all that castor oil might accomplish, without shock to the system. Without the evil taste. It's delicious!

Dr. Colbert's Address. In his paper Dr. Colbert declared that the ministers of the anarchist band became editors of newspapers and used it as a mostly weapon in information on slavery and other practices. From 1827 to 1890, Dr. Colbert discovered 30 weekly newspapers and magazines of which ministers were editors. The Presbyterian pastor Howard Renew said was editor of the first colored newspaper, "Freedom Journal." Henry Highland Garnet. In 1855 to 1864, he told the press of the nation quoted seminars of Rev Henry Highland Garnet, a new York Presbyterian pastor and an anarchist. The Rev. Mr. Garnas, he said, by request preached a sermon to the House of Representatives as a memorial of the triumph of the Union army. Dr. Colbert terms it the final sermon of slavery. Ministers As Teachers Referring to New York, Desmond Swann was produced a school for 100 years at Lothranen, MD. Dr. Colbert said for whatever amounts of intelligence the race has valued in the past 100 years, it is indicted largely to the ministry. Muse Antakellium preachers, Dr. Colbert said, are in a large group responsible for the vigor spirituality, finally the ministers were the songsters and composers. The Future The future constitution of the ministry must come from a higher cultural and educated group than we now have generated through America. Dr. Colbert concludes and he gradually elimination of the unprepared minister; he must pass his eighth overdue; his struggle to remain in working travesty upon the people.

SATAN ADVERTISING JESUS, SAYS PASTOR Every Obatacle 'Put In Way Of Christian Furthers God's Cause, Saya Rev. McCoy MOSES GREATEST MAN Temptations Vary To Suit Indi- vidual Types The Devil is God's advertising agent and every time that he puts an obstacle in a Christian's way he is furthering the Kingdom of God, declared the Rev. J. W. Mc- Coy to his congregation at the Pennsylvania Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church, Sunday morning. Taking as his subject "The Gracious Promises" by McGyver stated that membership in God's army affords protection identical to that afforded by governments in their warriors and that despite the suffering and temptations that Christianity must at times undergo, no real harm will ever come to them. There are different types of temptation for different types of people, the passive explained, and some temptation come to us as a result of our own experiences. These temptations are weapons in the desert use to break from the war works that God has built up. No good omes of the guarpers who are around and try to find hawks in other people's characters the Rev. McGyver continued. These people are one of the demi, and rather than terring to harm give the person they are trying to harm the person taking the treasured, they don't know that they are doing. The Rev McCoy sanctified his listeners to ignore the wagging of idle wives and to brake up in the face of seeming difficulty. Such things are only testa in the life of Jesus. He had the cases of Job, Moses and the speaking as length of the occasion on which Jesus tried to temp Jesus and make him turn the sames into bread. Moses, Dr McCoy believes, stands next to Christ, in the Christian context, aligning all his Biblical content with successors. His great gracefulness and his leading of the children of Israel, are in the pastor's estimation, of enough importance themselves, to mount Moses this position in Biblical history. In closing, the Rev McCoy urged his hearers, forward in time, for the truth, unmindful of the opposition of evil adversaries, because they are fighting under a leader who has never had a battle.

Evans And Lewis Davenport Tell People's Side Of Controversy CALL "OVER" DRAGON Deny Filibuster At Last Meeting The people's side of the Rev. Oren w. Ginsing Baptist contra- versy was aimed at the Baptist Minister's Meeting by Joseph P. Evans and Lewis Davenport, two members of long standing, Monday. The answer appeared as the meeting following the site as which the Rev. Mr. Cox was taking about last week. Book speakers were given a hearing as the early part of the service and were invited to patiently as they carefully presented the success of the pastor as the previous meeting. Call Craig Dragon Mr. Davenport in his statement declared that the role of the minister revealed the attitude of the magistrate. They had to put the dragon out of Heaven, he said, and we put the dragon out of Dawn Baptist Church. The $2,000 which they spent as an annual payment on the church worth $3,000, less than a beach and less than themselves of the pastor. The next time they call a pastor they will deal in home communities. Mr. Davenport declared. Mr. Evans declared, that after the congregation had voted not to purchase the church they hoped that the pastor would have religion strength to leave the church of the stone and not any more to do something that they did not want. Object To Headline The interests work acceptance in the APROD publication of the attempted librarian against the Ray. Over last week. A motion was made to approve a committee to wait on the action but was abandoned by the committee was made to reverse the action.

"I do not favor social equality, is safe, and the best element of civilized people do not want social society. They want equal rights, legal privileges and service. The best element of them realizes that when a white man in the south places himself on a level and equality in social matters, that he is not cared as they are, and they do not accept him in their homes as them Mantions Mance-Wilkinson Senator Blease referred to a number of men in South Carolina including the Rev. R. W. Mance, he hopes and believes will be elected to the bishopric of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, and R. R. Carolina Normal and Industrial Colleges. I am satisfied," he said, "that they will bear me out in the position that they do not ask for social equality; nor do they seek another are they anxious to hold official positions. All Would Vote For Him I am satisfied further that the entire colored population of my state is in the fact that the Southern white man is their best friend. I believe if it were left to the colored ones of my state, and each and every one of them had the power to tar his vote as he please, the percent of them would vote for me for which I might become president. Jim Crow Car Bill Referring to the bill which he has introduced in the Senate to provide in-service coaches on street railways in the District of Columbia, Senator Please said that this bill "is not intended as a political strike at or insult to the Negro race, but I believe that the passage of such a bill will prevent at some time very serious trouble in the District of Columbia. "Some white man at some time," he stated, "is come to resist or request a colored man's, or what he can be colored man's, attention or disrespect to some white woman in the street cars. It is going to lead an assault. Possibly someone in the car may be killed or seriously injured, and it may lead to serious trouble between the races. This can be avoided by giving to each race the same car service, the same rate, and no noe in any infraction. It is a question of protecting both races." Senator Blease introduced the first bill in the state legislature of South Carolina to pension a colored person, William Rose, who was the personal body servant of General Macy Gregg in the Confederate army. Senator the Fruit Cake Associated as trustee of the South Carolina Normal and Industrial College at Orangeburg, S.C. As governor of the state he was chairman of the board of trustees ex-officio. Each Christmas from the time of his governorship to the present, the girls in the domestic school have him and Mrs. Blesse a fruit cake. He delights to refer to this remembrance even on the floor of the Senate. Common School Education "I always advocated common school education," he said, "that is, reading, writing, arithmetic and those things which it takes to make the colored a man a good citizen and to put him into position of himself in whatever deal or transaction in life he might have to make." Released 1,000 Prisoners he was when Governor of South Carolina Senator Blease related. I found the penitentiary overcrowded with colored inmates, and had served years and years longer than they should have. They had no money to hire lawyers, no influential friends to work for them, and I took my secretary and went to the penitentiary and inter- faced all the various prisoners per- sonal, and I released a thousand or more colored men from that hell-hole, and gave them a new chance in life. Up to my prison, one of them has been recommitted for any violation of the terms of his parole or for having committed any other crime". Call VE rnon 6016 Coming Photoplays Regent "Beau Sabreur", "One Woman To Another", "The Life Of Reilly", "Beau Geste" (The Beautiful Gesture you will have the wonderful and exciting successor "Beau Sabreur", (The Beautiful Swordman) at the Regent Theatre three days next week, beginning Monday. The title "Beautiful Swordsman" is applied to Gary Cooper, who is Henri de Beaujolais, meets a traitor to France and conquers him with a spirited display of swordsmanship. The melodramatic romance shows Cooper as a dashing officer in the French Legion stationed in Paris. Gin Mary Tanbrugh, played by Evelyn Brent, visits her military uncle and Cooper saves her life three times. "Beau Sabreur" has sworn not to fall in love with any woman because of devotion to France, but see how he comes out. The outdoor scenes of this stupendous production were made in the Mojave desert and the 500 actors and technical directors were forced to put refrigerators in the tents, make snowboards and coat themselves. The temperature was 110 degrees during the day. In the realistic desert battle scenes, 35 cases of dynamite were required. The explosives were placed in the sands and blown up as the enemy horsesome approach. The enemy are unusual in that they reveal the modern methods of warfare used by desert tribes in the Sarah desert. Hundreds of riders and horsemen are blown up successively until the enemy is vanquished. In movies, shekls are hitherto male creatures, but they are not so dashing, nor are they as graceful, dignified and nor poised as they're made out to be. Evelyn Brent says of them: "Before starting to work on "Beau Sabreur," I studied up on desert characters. The average sheik's face is covered with so much foliage that you can hardly see his features. He wears a long beard that is far from good looking. He does that to keep out the sun, otherwise it would burn his face to a crisp. "Instead of being handsome and chivalrous, they are far from that. Sheiks will smile at you to your face, then hurt a knife in your back, then treat herous and are only looking for personal gain in anything they do." "One Woman To Another", the Paramount production in which Florence Vidor comes to the screen Thursday and Friday, will show the actress wearing no less than 30 stunning creations, and all are designed to appeal to the feminine part of the audiences. The comedy tells of a girl and her sweetheart who are intertwined when her brother places two children in her care. Roy Stewat, one of the supporting principals, formerly screened as a two-gun man with William S. Hart, is shown in "One Woman To Another" as a lanceman producing team George Sidney and Charlie Murray, will turn the bill Saturday in "The Life Of Reilly". George is in the role of the chief of police and Murray as fire chief in a regular town. They spend their time arguing that the time old maid from the flames during a racing fire. "The Life Of Reilly" shows the circus coming to town, and the chiefs son falling in love with the girl. A regular city "slicker" and a touch of romance complete this laugh provoker. Royal "Quality Street", "Spoilers Of The West", "The Four Flusher", "Chicago". Women who think the present day flapper's attire is the latest word, in swanky clothing should see Marion Davies in the mode of the 19th century in "Quality Street", the screen attraction at the Royal Theatre, here. Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday. The old adage, "There nothing new the sun", is even more right for only Miss Davies coiffure would not con- tinue to the present idea of up to the minute. "Quality Street" is a period play dealing with provincial England at the time of the Hapoletic wars. Marion Davies plays the role of a young girl who falls in love with a physician and assures she is about to populate "when he suddenly joins the army. Conrad Nagel, as the physician, returns from the war and lets the girl know that she is not even appealing any longer. The film shows the ballroom dances of that day which were considered shocking but are now forgotten. Although decidedly tame compasses, jazz dancing compasses, mazurka and other steps were much strenuous than the charleston or blackbottom. The stirring days of the American pioneer who battled with the Indians for possession of the West will live again on the screen in Spoiler, the West's, a frontier drama that plays the role of Friday at the Royal. Five hundred Arapho Indians are part of the photoplay. Tim McCoy is shown as an American cavalryman who wishes to treat the red men kindly. A terrific battle takes place in the village of a treaty upon the Indians taking their best hunting grounds away from them. If you like action pictures and the pioneer romances you will appreciate "Spoilers Of The West." Morgan will Douglas Hih student and will see "The Four Flusher," the Saturday feature in which youth takes the lead. This exciting force tells about the adventures of a young shoe clerk who an accidentaletee at $10,000 starts business in competition with former employer.

COLUMBUS BALKS MISSOURI TOWN'S LYNCHING PLANS Ohio Governor Denies Extradition Requested By Southern State CRIME 14 YEARS OLD Elks, Ku Klux Put Up $1,000 To Get Their Man COLUMBUS, Ohio. — Extradition of William Brown, known as "Cornbread", from Columbus, Ohio, to Missouri, where it was feared he would be lynched on charge of a murder committed 14 years ago, has been defeated by W. S. Lyman, attorney, with the cooperation of the Legal Aid Committee of the Columbus Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. The Committee was composed of Attorney B. F. Hughes, A. J. Worsham, L. A. Rarsom and I. D. Ross, began an investigation as soon as arrest of Will Brown was reported. "I immediately after his arrest there were numerous reports in circulation in the city of Columbus to the effect that citizens of New Madrid, Missouri," says a report from Columbus to the N. A. A. P. P. National Office. "It was reported that the Elks, Lodge and the K. K. K. of New Madrid had raised a sum of money estimated at $1000 to bring Brown back to discontent." The attitude and conversation of Lewis Hackett, deputy sheriff of New Madrid County, sent here to receive the custody of Brown, did much to enhance this apprehension. Throught the hearing on a Writ of Habeas Corpus he referred to Brown as "this higner and slick" "Upon investigation by the Association Attorneys, in cooperation with Mr. Lyman, personal counsel for Brown, it was found that the murderer of Henry Johnson was about 24 or 25 years of age at the time of the killing. Therefore the murderer would be approximately 40 years old now. Only 26 Now "Brown stated that he was only 26 years of age at that he was born in Willard, Ohio; and that he nine. The attorneys found several people who had known Brown in his youth in Columbus, Ohio, and the testimony of these people at the hearing before the Ohio Governor's Secretary, established Brown's age as had given it. This would have made Brown only 12 years old at the time the murder was committed; the port to the N. A. A. C. continues. "The claim of the State of Missouri was identified upon personal identification by the deputy sheriff New Madrid County. He claimed to have been able to remember Brown and identify him after a lapse of 14 years. This appeared doubtful in the light of the fact that he could have seen him only two or three times a week, over a period of three months, among two or three hundred out of Negroes at work on a farm camp where the alleged killer took place. "He further claimed that he had been abused and picked Brown out of 40 other prisoners in the morning linee- in City Prison on the day after his arrival. But this statement was negated on his cross-examination when defense attorneys forced him to admit that he had arrived in umbus about midnight and had gone directly to the prison and were an attendant had arrived in him to go back to Cornwall's cell and take a good book to the defendant. Identification of the following morning was, of course a simple matter." Star "The Silent Lover", "Wheel Of Destiny", "Racing Fool", "Stolen Bride".

Just Off The Press 1928 EDITION The Official Theatrical World "National Directory and Guide of Actors, Performers and Musicians" 115 West 131st Street—New York, N. Y. IBYN C. MILLER FLOYD G. SNELSON, Jr. Subscription—One Dollar A Year MAIL ORDERS FILLED PROMPTLY AGENTS WANTED Mr. Stribling is the Tennessee author who wrote "Teefallow" "Birthright" and other successful novels and is co-author of the play, "Rope," based upon the play presented at the Baltimore Theatre. He has long been a student of the Southern Negro's character and customs. By T. J. STRIBLING (In New York World) Any writing person who comes to New York must immediately go and see Harlem. One is whitted and one is not, and one is expected to surprise and shock. The Harlem policemen, many of whom are foreign looking, have apparently become so accustomed to giving street directions to surprised and shocked people that to souch along Seventh avenue up above 110th street and some thoughtful blue uniform will recognize a muck raking writer and select one to dance mad crowd. There one acquivers to the barbaric cynoposition of Africa; is bewildered by the conditions of our dance mad crowd. There one begins to register shock and surprise that such things can be. It is unbelievable that white people preferably like white shoes on 42nd street. A man fresh from the south always sees in a menace to his country, the black-Saxon traditions. He emerges from these sinister surroundings, halls a taxi and starts downward toward his publisher in his heart and a story in his head. The other morning the telephone rang and the voice of a friend said: "Hey, I'm with two Negroes, very nice chaps, and after dinner they take you through Harlem." "Owow," that several writers, including Negroes themselves, have emphasized the rougher side of life up-town. I inquired casually whether my life would be safe. Then I asked: "What about your friend that he didn't consider life in New York safe in any form or place. And, being from the south, I agreed with him. ROWAN ALWAYS GAMES UP At the dinner I met three young Negro men; one was dark, and one was light and the other was white. We talked to about Negroes and white people. It is a curious thing that in the south no black man and white man discuss the race question on the neutral north they immediately begin to ask each other questions which no doubt they have. If face there is no way to get along with a Negro in Harlem without a preliminary discussion of the race question, you have to show your hand. We got into it this time through John, a character in "Rope." I seem to think that you play in the Biltmore and I really thought better of them for that. Why is it?" asked the brown man, named Cullen, "that in your play the only character who performs a completely unselfish action is the Negro chore boy? Why did you write him it?" "It's a custom among southern writers," said I. "Because, on the whole, we think Negroes are loyal. Or rather they are likely to leave you in the lurch in crises, a Negro will stand by as long as he has breath in his body. And you see, literature and drama are hard to compare. We perharm the Negro gets really a better reputation than he deserves." The dark youth named Thurman suggested that I probably had made the mistake of not realizing the reasons. "You get a sharp, almost unbearable effect of pathos," he said, by making the helpless little black girl laugh. "You did much the same thing in my play." "I call它 Mecca." said Thurman, "I produced on Broadway this autumn." "I'm," said I clearing my throat and distinctly shocked, "that quite easily Tennessee." And just here I couldn't remember what it was I had started to say about Tennessee, so I turned it off into: "Well, suppose we useasy and get along up to Harlem." That started them talking about sculpture. They said the Negro sculptors in Harlem were trying to get something of the African spirit in work. "Well, I said, 'what about the African spirit in sculpture?' "You'll find a lot of it in the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Museum of Chicago," said Harold Jackman. "The difference between Afrikan and African is the difference between confluence." *centration and diffusion*. African sculpture is the crystallization of a single mood. An African piece of a listening girl, for instance, every line in the wood—they're mostly wood—would be centered on the act of listening. These carvings are so concentrated that they are almost burlesques, but they never are quite. Now a European carving is always diffuse. If a girl is listening, it is quite conceivable that she will present stop listening and dance or sing or dine, but such a girl in an African carving must go on listening forever." NEGRO ACTOR FACES SANDWICH. Then we got out and went around to the new Rockefeller apartments to see Paul Robeson, of course. He was the role of "Grown in Heywood's The trouble about actors in Harlem is the demand for Negro mummers is so sporadic. Recently, the Negro plays, "Lula Belle" and "Porgy" and two or three others, but the next season it may happen that black actors in Harlem actor is out of work. Incidentally Robeson is a singer too, and gives concerts when he is not on the stage, just three lines it, and yet I believe it was one of the most moving and melancholy songs I ever heard in my life. The Sometimes I wish I was an eagle. Sometimes I wish I was a mon'n'dove. Sometimes I wish I had never been born. When we got into our taxi again, the bunch of us drove around the city to see Mr. Wolf, Mr. Wolf works in the United Charities Building, and his honne task is to promote Racial Good Will between the Jews and the Chris- Our party in Harlem broke up at about 3 in the morning. It was surprising in that it was a New York in which I had not been offered a drink. Instead of drinking we talked, which again was odd. Harold Jackman directed me to a car. As I got in to the car, "This fellow Cullen, who has been running around with us all evening, what does he do?" "Well, nothing much," said Jackman, "writes a little verse now and then." "Cullen" repeated I. "Cullen-Cullen-what's his first name?" "Countee," said jackman. "Countee Cullen." It seemed to me I had heard the name before someWhere. I have been in the taxi. I thought to myself, "Well, they right: the white literary cabarets sleuths are correct. There's something brewing in Harlem.

World) I notice, every time a Negro musical comedy or review is produced, critics express regret that there is so much imitation of white musical shows. These comments remind me of the little boy who, in studying geography, made a disco ball and the big city "What the Negro players are up against is the fact that their stuff which was once exclusively their own has been taken over by white players and two of the chief elements in American musical shows today are Negro in their derivation; they are the music she plays, the costuming and the plot and the costuming. So now when Negroes put on what is actually a typical Negro musical show they appear to be imitating the white music they play for them, and really I don't see what they can do about it. Do you?

Dudley Lists Drake And Walker, Whitman Sisters, Mamie Smith, "Models" GROSS STEADILY WASHINGTON. - Preparatory to leaving for Palm Beach and other points in Florida for a rest, S. H. Dudley, veteran showman, this week rated only four shows as standard attractions. "Drake and Walker," the "Whitman Sisters," "Mamie Smith" and Irwin C. Miller's "Brownskin Models" are placed on Dudley's roll of honor in his release to the weekly press. He also deplores the fact that so many shows are forced to play a five-year independent circuit because of poor organization. The showman says in part, "We have four standard attractions, Drake and Walker, Whitman that never tail to do business; maters, 'Brownskin Models' and 'Mamie Smith' are other good attractions that have well in spots but the above men do business everywhere they appear. Why? Because of good management that allows that cause to happen." "I must admit that if we had bigger and better theatres, better managed and accurate jumps, we could have more good shows. At present we are attempting to attain the Philadelphia, Newark, Baltimore, Philadelphia and Washington that never any further on account of conditions. This will be remedied soon I hope as soon as we can. All we need now is cooperation between the managers of theatres and shows. "On my return I expect to call a meeting of both the producers and the managers of theatres out for the benefit of all concerned."

Thus Vivian Brown, prima donna of the "Tobacco Queen" company, characterized the fact that she has been able to retain her lyric soprano voice after working in the smoky atmosphere of cabarets since 1917. Miss Brown attended the public performance with the show at the Royal Theatre. She is at the Howard, Washington, this week. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, Miss Brown attended the public schools there. She later went to Boston and studied voice culture for a year, and then attended the history, and was also a pupil of Carl Doering, noted German teacher. The somewhat buxom singer made her professional debut not on the concert stage as had been her childhood dream, but in a little basement studio. She was the whole revue, singing and playing the piano. She soon was graduated from the ranks and was engaged by the late Barron Wilkins, colorful night-life figure who was killed in 1924. Wilkins' club, the soprano hled herself back to New England and opened at the St. Regis Hotel, remaining there three years. Terminating that engagement she made the simple move of accepting a place on the bill in the Plantation room of the Westminster Hotel and remained in the Hub City another year. New York City, she returned to Wilkins' cabaret and worked there until his death. Working the cabarets at Asbury Park, Egg Harbor and Atlantic City during the summer seasons, Miss Brown never entered the cast of a movie, but she presented season when she joined "Gingersnaps" a production starring S. H. Dudlev, Jr. Singer with a clarity and finesse unusual for the solistors of revues, Miss Brown refuses to give the credit to any being except the Divine. "If He were not interested in me, would he have been a common to other singers who have worked in cabarets?" Poor Pay In Concerts "Have you planned for concert work, later?" she was asked. "Of course," she replied, "but it seems now that the field offers little except praise of critics and small box office receipts. Some of the finest artists earn considerably less than the theatrical musicians." Ed. Dalv. white, plans a race show for Broadway during the summer months and has promised Miss Brown a singing role.

Situation Confused The ousting of Pastor Over brings to a climax a long fight in the church, which began when the pastor met opposition to an expansion program in which it was planned to buy a church once occupied by whites, at the corner of Madison and Lafayette avenues. A faction headed by Joseph Evans, A. D. Koger and Dr. A. O. Reid, opposed the buying of the church. A deep seep from the parish of the members to the present edifice as a shrine to the late Harvey Johnson, added to the strength of the opposition to the pastor.

Nutter, president of the branch. The use of the library arose when the Board of Education for the independent district of Charleston, passed resolutions making the school a public institution, and limiting its use to white school children and white citizens. At the same time the school was the home of the students of Garnett high school and colored citizens. The latter library contains only 3,000 volumes as compared with the main contention of the colored citizens against this malignant and unrealized effort. The main contention is that as much as the library is supported by white and colored tax-payers, its use should be denied to none. The board thus decided to conduct its tests with the statement that the library is an educational institution and that a state law requires the separation of the Charleston is the only city in the state where segregation is practiced in the public library. Just why the board seeks to institute this needless and tyrannical system is not clear. This city have pledged themselves to fight it out in the courts of the state.

Holding the comfortable side of a 13-7 score at half time, the Fresh defense let up a little in the second frame and the Dunbar gunners ran for 15 yards, trailing 18-17, with only two and a quarter minutes to play, but "Little Tommy" Tucker and "Babe" Jones pulled the proverbial fat out of the fire. The District team started their second stringers but yanked them out when the yearlings began running rings abound them and led by eight points. Syphax, Dunbar machine, inducted the first and the Bef and Black machine got going. In the second half, goals by Williams, Syphax, Seall and Johnson, added by two free throws, put Dumbar within striking distance of their one and one goal, stood 18-17, in favor of the Fresh. Gene West was yanked out and Tucker sent back in. And it was Tucker that made the first goal of danger. Just to be sure, "Babe" Jones dropped in another, just before the final whistle blew. The entire Freshman team played with six points, while the guarding of Sewall and Berry featured for the Dumbar team. High. 17. Morgan Frost. 22. Williams. G P P. G P P. G P P.

Dr. Woods was formerly of Virginia Semi-Atlanta University. Taking issue with an editorial printed in the Baltimore "Sun", Dr. Woods said the "Sun" admitted that the school had "no capital and educational facilities as well as in politics, but talked at social quality. The "Sun" conceded these things, he said, only after years of assistance and the flurb must go on until all barriers are broken down.

It happened to be our good fortune to have a good bit to say to the Hildale pilot at the joint session in Philadelphia, a few weeks ago, and it was there that we learned something that seems to be the impelling motive behind Bolden's decision might be expressed in two words: PAIR PLAY.

For this reason we, because of failure in the past, must be something wrong IN the league, else he would stay. Col.

HILLDALE QUITS EASTERN LEAGUE Saturday, Mar. 17, 1928 HILLDALE CLUB QUITS; LEAGUE A JOKE-BOLDEN Darby Pilot And Former League Prexy, Says Con- dition of Some Clubs Bad FREEMAN RESIGNS AS PRES.—BOLDEN IN New Leader Promises Shake Up In Personnel—Nat Strong Out Also PHILADELPHIA, PA.—Declaring the Eastern Baseball League to be a "big joke," the Hildale baseball club through its manager, Edward Bolden, announced its withdrawal here Thursday. Mr. Bolden, former president of the league, and pilot of the Hildale aggregation, gave among his research questions to some of the clubs the league is far from what it should be: that Harrisburg and the Bolden Royals have quietly joined the league, respectively, and each drawn up, is not equalized, to two teams playing the same number of games during the season. Bolden, the Bolden Club was represented both the single sessions of the Eastern League and the joint sessions of the National and Eastern Leagues, which last month Bolden, and at that time seemed to be no rift between this team and the league. While there was no outward indication of assistance out the part of Manager that he was a champion of the rights of the players and was outspoken in his declaration that the league be represented at the meetings. Maro New Pilot Beginning last month from a spell of illness, Mr. Bolden, in one of his press releases to the press, took up the matter of player representation in the Hillel Club. Mr. Bolden was elected Thursday and Mr. Bolden was elected in his stead. As Mr. Bolden will not have time to attend to his presidency, the club will be held as well. George Mayo was chosen to succeed him as manager of the Hillel Club. The resignation of Freeman, coming from the club, was believed by that of Lloyd Thompson, secretary. Thomas Jenkins is the secretary. In order to elect Bolden it was voted against him when he was ousted last year to rally to his superther action probably influenced by a promise of plums, assuming a position Mr. Bolden is plain that there be a drastic shakeup in the personnel of the Hillel team. As president of the club, his responsibility and authority, it is expected that some of the Hillel idols are set for a tumble, with the possibility that some newer idols may set a chance to come from. Bill Francis Speculation is rife as to just what will become of Bill Francis, who just last December, was brought in to the Darby Daisies during a new old-time rame up in the hay-day of the old Philadelphia Giants but became known for his playing with Rube Ames of that great infield that included Grant, DeMoss, Lloyd, and Francis. His coming to Hilldale was looked upon as a drama he has been doing in the seasons of 1920, 21 and 22 he captured the Darby aggregation. When spanned four months ago it was unbelievable that Francis would not play in a central time to his managerial duties.

Yokeele had figured out each ball, to be an exact science, and in addition he had watched Hack during batting practice. One day in practice Hack picked out four to his right field fence. Each of these pitched balls, Yokeele noticed, was a low outcure, Hack stepping back, and coming forward to meet it just as he did. Finds Winson's Weakness. Having seen, this was all that Yokeele wanted. In the next game he hit a low pitch, his style of delivery when the Mighty Hack stepped up to bat. He shot over a fast straight ball, high and close, so his speed was the 'Stri-ry' yelled the umpis, and Hack grimmed. But when another of the same kind came back. Hack swung, and fanned the air. The ball had a high speed, the airplane speed behind it. Another, and the Windy City batsman threw down his bludgeon and perpetrated some cruelles on the English. He was good and Yokley repeated this performance again during the game and in subsequent games, causing Hack to emulate the Flying Dutchman. He figured out how to use scientific data and got the results. Yokley will be in a Sox uniform again this season and should be in top form. He probably won't get another chance at Hack until the close of the season, but ever, baseball fans will be well repaid for the admission price they planked down. TRY 'EM OUT TRY 'EM OUT BY HARRY GILBERT NOTE—It is the writer's aim to bring forward a few personalities who have the potential to be excellent baseball players. Every fan likes to see a face from his home town on a big team. Well friends, last week I broke the ice in the "Try 'Em Out" Lines. You read it you read, and will try to push these boys along into the Eastern or Western Leagues. All has the possibilities, some more chance, give 'em a chance. Who can tell? The second of my choice in line is William D. Barnes, short-stop; a player who has been a few from the right side), plays his position well, and throws nicely. Barnes was a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, and also played with the Silver Moon and Pennsylvania Eagles. I believe he is one of the best infenders on any lottery. I recall in a game against the Locke Glants last summer; one of the spectators, a huckster offered a bucked-off home run. Barnes was the only fellow I saw eating one. Another occasion, his three-base hit, with the Basketball Glass Co. white, the final score being 3-2. "Try 'Em Out." Carlisle Five Wins Columbia Elk Series WASHINGTON-With Ed Davis, Va.

Withdrawal of these two clubs leaves only four remaining in the league, namely, the Bacharachs, Guiana, Lincoln Clients and the Baltimore Black Sox. It is only a matter of conjecture as to whether or not they will continue to function under the league banner as the scheduling of games is now even more difficult than before.

Talking It Over With BILL GIBSON Attention, Marathoners — The College Title — Local Fights — Professionalism — Greeks Meet Bears — Call Of The Diamond. With interest centered in the great "Cash and Carry" Pyle's coast-to-coast marathon, Baltimore harriers and runners in our schools and colleges should get out their shoes and trunks and begin training for two marathon races that will be held here. The annual Health Week Marathon will be run off next month and on June 2nd the sixth annual Baltimore Marathon (26 miles) will be run. This latter race will have a direct bearing on the selection of the United States in the Olympiad at Amsterdam this year and should attract a galaxy of stars. Here are two excellent chances for runners in the Baltimore area and in our colleges to win some coveted opportunity, perhaps a trip to Europe. Better, get busy. Morgan Is "It" The Morgan College basketball team fulfilled the fondest hopes of its well wishers last Friday night, by decisively winning over Va. Seminary. And a job it was, particularly during that second half. Morgan's win puts the two teams in international collegiate title. There will be a playoff of the tie if the two teams can agree on the place and date. It is interesting to note that it was in the second half, the lynchburg, and the one here, that these two teams were evenly matched, scoring practically the same number of points. In half that won the game, each time. Morgan and Seminary scored 20 points each in the second half. Friday night. The greatly heralded "Eddie" Davis proved false, one did not need a star player, another case of a star player having an "off too." And while both "Lanky Jones" and "Silm" Henderson are stars, one did not need a star player, brighter in the basketball tournament, last Friday night. Those hardened fight fans who wanted for new meat should have no kick after the exhibition they witnessed at the New Albert last week. The bouts were snappy and had the gallery and ringed yellings for it. For a while it looked as if the customers were going to be denied their wish but when Dillard and "Tiger" Bruce crawled through the hall, the bolstered. There were cries of "If won't be long now," and sure enough it was Dillard straightened out a right to the Georgian's snook and the "Tiger" He was about five minutes coming to, but the fans satisfied. "Pro" Stuff Latest reports received at this desk state that the Morgan basketball team will play the Savoy Legionnaires, a pro team, here. Such news on the surface seems usual enough but under the surface is a condition that we have tried to point out in these columns before. It is the matter of professionalism. We say about this is in a spirit of friendliness. Morgan's playing of the local Elks' team and of the Washington team has been condoned by us, as we tried, at least in our mind, to justify it by law. We have been led that it was necessary to afford practice games for the locals. But to go deliberately to Chicago and play a pro team, we believe, is an unwise policy, and professional team of itself PROFESSIONALIZES Those Who Play Against Them. Again we say, and we want it unaware, and feel that we are certain that the Bears would be better off if they CANCELLED their game with this team or any team, they may seem unnecessarily hard and just because no opponent has ever called your hand on the question of professionalism is no sign that no team WILL future. The George V. Morgan. The Athenians are going to meet the Morgan Bears in a series of battles for the city title, year, for the State title, we are told, the league nights, and game it should be. The Athenian lads have had a good lay-off and should be well primed. Of course, there is the danger, that the team will be taken James, Morgan, by reason of her more experienced squad, has been picked by many to take the series handily. They will be playing on a floor with which they are equally familiar and Wheatley and Sheffey, former Greeks, should have a double advantage of play. We hope they don't shoot in the wrong basket. Baseball There's music in the air as horsehide and hickory meet. The boys have gotten out their baseball tops and the fans, and are now playing. The Black Sox will give the locals their first glimpse of diamond stunts when they take the field at the Black Sox Park, Sunday, April first. There will be new faces in the lineup, statistically every club in both the National and Eastern Leagues. A number of rookies are coming up to fill the shoes that the vets are vacating and should make things for a number of teams. These toughest of many of them coming from the sand lots should get a chance if the cliques of the old-timers can't work against them.

She was cognizant of the responsibility that would fall on her shoulders if she did become his wife. She did not shrink from them. She welcomed them. Liana marveled, herself, at the quality of her beauty for Masson. It was so different from the she she had for Liebertini. From him, she cared only his jewels, the beautiful things ashamed upon her, the affection things response she felt for him was mostly gratitude she made he made. for the Brev. But Dr. Masson! She wanted to be near him, to work with him, to help him. She wanted to serve himself as well as she wanted to love him. To receive his love. 10. To receive herself almost praying. She found herself in "Lord, let me have him. In spite of all I love, I'll make him a good wife. Just give me a keep him. That's all I want — one chance to pave my love. If she would keep him, she knew, it would be because she appealed to his senses; but if she would keep him, she must keep him as the most virtuous bride keep her husband, through love, sweetness, and helpfulness. To Luana, she needed more desirable. ninth. Luckily on its former rosy hue. The future meant its entrancing years before her, years of love and happiness. She moved around in an animal daze, transported above the tasks she performed. And so, she was totally unprepared for the thin which came to pass. The next morning she Sunday, Dick spent with his wife. His sweet notes floated into Lana's room where she was busy doing a thousand things to herself to make her more attractive to the man she awaited. It was Sunned perhaps, she would see Masson. The timing of the phone drowned out Dick's Same Song. Luana stood alert, listening. Perhaps it was a call from Masson for her examination. She heard Dick's calling for an unmanned line of questions and comments. The call was for Dick, then, so she had her attention to her lotions and creams. But in a moment, Dick called to her. She can across the hall into the living room, rosy and delighted. It was, Masson, after all! But the receiver was hanging on the hook and Dick was tuning his violin. "Say, guav what!" he said to her over his shoulder. "As the saying goes, he's gone and gone. Who?" asked Luana. "And what?" She spoke brightly but for no reason she could define. She was breathless and excited. "He's taken the fatal step. He's married!" laughed Dick. Luana Lee stood perfectly still a minute. Her heart missed a beat. Then she smiled. A relieved, hopeful smile. Dick meant Cone. She laughed. "What was dumb enough to marry him?" "Not Cotie," said Dick. "Someone you would think had better sense. It's Masson. Rushed thins up and got married yesterday." Silence. A silence so long that Dick, still smiling, turned to look at Luana. For Dick being a bachelor, was tickled at the news of marriage. He considered it a great joke on the bridegroom. He was already thinking what a great time he would have at Masson's expense. His smile brought a blessed relief to Luana. He was kidding her, of course! "He is not married," said Luana firmly. "Why are you trying to tease me?" Dick looked puzzled. "Of course he's married. He just said so, and he told me to tell you." "I'll have to hear him say it myself," said Luana. Dick wondered at her set face and stiff faces. "Alright then," he said. "Call him up. He's at the office." But Luana's hands were numb, and she felt weak as though she was disintegrating. "Get him on the line for me, Dick". Her brother, clancing at her face, did as she asked. She stood, like a woman turned to ice, wait- Call VE mon 6016 "Masson?" said Dick into the mouthpiece. "My sister wants to know if you are kidding us, or is it true? She's on the line now." Dick handed the phone to Luana, but she could not lift a hand to hold it. She shrank from it, afraid to hear her doom. Dick pressed the receiver to her ear. She heard Masson's "Luana?" She made a slight noise of assent and waited. It semed that everything in the world had stopped moving that her very heart stopped beating while she waited for it. "It's in my way. I do it right away or I wouldn't have been able to keep faith with myself. You understand, don't you?" Luana pushed the receiver away and Dick hung it on its hook. Dick watched Luana, speechless. He had never witnessed a phenomena like this before. Something, a part of his sister was dying before his eyes. That vital spark, which makes life go, gave you was shipping out of her body. Now, it had gone. Squeezed out. And a part of her was dead. She stood looking at him out of the big holes that had been her laughing eyes, out of the shell that had been her body, now a husk, devoid of color or animation. She didn't faint or scream, but she began to give him a shriek and cry. Dick could not stand to see a woman cry so he got his hat, closed the door and went out. He was very much at sea. It seemed a great deal had been going on that he knew nothing about. When he returned, it was dark, so he struck a match to light the gas in the hanging chandelier. He thought he was shaking in the fall's light. He thought he had never seen anyone so pale, but her eyes were steady and her lips were firm. It was clear that she would not cry again. Dick sat beside her on the sofa. "Suppose you tell the old man all about it," he said in his gentlest voice. "Dick, I loved him. He's the only one I ever loved." "Why couldn't he love me. Dick?" "Perhaps, like me, he never dreamed that you thought of him in that way." "He knew," Luana said bluntly. "I told him." "Remember, Luana, he was engaged to Constance then. You could not have him forget his honor, would you? "How?" Luana. "Is it honor to marry one person if you love another. No, Dick, he is too honorable for that. He would have explained to Constance and come to me." Luana shock her head sadly. "No, that was not it. He did, not love me. He would not let himself love me." Silence fell upon the dimly lighted room. Then Luana spoke again. "Why not he love me, Dick? Why couldn't I have him? I would have made him a good wife." "Don't you know why, Luana?" asked Dick gently. "Was it because of Lieb? sighed the girl. "Would you said, said Dick." Masson just happens to be the type of man who can't overlook such things. Listen, Luana. I've never known you to be unsportsmanlike. Reason this thing out for yourself, then put it out of your mind. "I'm going to talk plainly to you, because I think of the old idade, you can't eat your cake and have it, too. Now, in your case, you can't spend those qualities that make a woman respectable and cherished and still be the same as though you had guarded yourself more carefully. "I'm not cunning you, Luana. But face the writer. You have had a good time, in a way that convention frowns upon. Why, then, do you expect to marry a man who holds the virtue and purity of womanhood in high regard? Masson doesn't like 'big time' women. He never has since I went to college with him. Why single him out to love? There are plenty of men who would love different wives and husbands, and would love the other qualities in you that make you so attractive. "Forget Masson. Take this blow as a deserved punishment. Buck up and smile. The gambler must lose some times. Remember the cost of pleasure comes high, and it calls for a heap of paying. He disgraced me before the whole town. He almost took my life. Surely, I'm through with him, now." Dick said nothing to this. He slipped his arm around the ouiering little form and drew his sister close to him. His heart was filled with sorrow for he knew the mark of Lieberin, and Liana Lee and Lieberin. Sin is a costly extravagance and those who indulge must pay the price. Liana Lee had told Dick that Sunday, that surely she was through with Joe Lieberin, but the very first mail on Monday brought a letter postmarked South America. It was from Lieberin. Liana's cheeks flamed with anger as she recognized the fine script of his writing. This was the crowning insult of all Lieb's nervy actions. How like him it was to almost murder her and then calmly start correspondence with her. "What in the world can he have to say to me?" thought Liana Lee as she slit the envelope. TO BE CONTINUED The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. Darker Baltimore By RALPH MATTHEWS GO-GETTERS-BACTERIA Intelligence comes to your humble servant from the Department of Health and Sanitation that the city is becoming infected with a dazing gerous form of bacteria known as Homo sapiens. Every day parade under the moniker of "Gogetters". Gogetters or Sapiens, which for the sake of abbreviation, we will call down right Saps, first came to the attention of phoologicalists during the late Shrapnel Dodging Contest, dubbed for the benefit of posterity, War of Fortune, and nationalist revival, revealed them as energetic organisms, appearing on platforms, boosting everything from the conscripture draft to the umplethent Liberty Loan Drive. They were known as three minute speakers and utilized most of their albedot time putting extracts from Lincoln's Gettysburg Speech, of Patrick Henry and tubing over with patriotism like a kettle of beer on the kitchen stove. FEMALE OF SPECIES The female of the species, at this early stage, was found to be handing out soggy doughnuts to doughbys at depots and knitting woolen socks that kept the targets in the gutters about as warm and comfortable as an African chieftain feels with an icicle dropped down his back in the middle of January. TEMPORARILY STUMPED The big fuss settled in favor of Wall street, the googetters found themselves stumped, for a brief moment, for something to go get. Some went out wild jabbing at them. The others settled down to a life of honest labor by bootlegging for a living. Unlike most germs in their incipient stage, Sapiens are not killed by light and air, but flourish on it. The more light they are given, the more they thrive, especially if it is soootht. The more depends on air—hot air, blah, atmospheric, werbe. EXIST IN TWO FORMS Scientific investigations reveal that these bacteria exist in two distinct forms in America, black and white, and both are as dangerous to the peace and tranquility of a municipality as the seven year locust is to the truck farmer with three mortgages. These bacteria, in peace, times are found in Kiwanas and Rotary clubs, on zoning committees and wear high hats whenever any celebrity plods into the City Hall. They also eat big dinners at exclusive hotels when planning community funds to care for the poor. The dinners are paid for out of the community fund. SABLE HUED GOGETTERS The sable hued sap confines himself to race blabbing. To the world he appears to be an arch enemy of any sort of proscription, but inwardly he thrives on prejudice, segregation, inching, and mob violence. He loves it like Billy Sunday loves sin. if every body acted on the golden rule, he wouldn't have any job. GOGETTERS ARE GEGARIOUS Gogetters are gegarioous. He hard to together in enclaves and klans and will call a convention on the slightest provocation. Left alone, a gogetter is practically harmless, but if permitted to compare the brewings in his own occupant with that of another, most anything is liable to result from an eruption of Mt. Vesuvius to a drive to erect a home for orphan children's parents, for no reason, with each other. It makes no difference whether they are settling the European war debt, discussing race relations or just chewing the rag. gogetters are in confidence. Whatever they do, whenever they do, it is of most vital importance. They hide behind a defense mechanism of being rushed to keep you from finding out how dumb they are. You only find a gogetter in two conditions: to talk or to too tired from being too busy. Nothing a gogetter likes better than being exhausted. DATA HOUNDS Gogetters are data hounds. They compile statistics on anything from the size of wash-women's feet in Georgia to the destiny of college professors' heads. They put the statistics in pamphlets. Gogetters can draw up pamphlets on anything. They like to put things over. They like causes. The bigger the cause the better they like it. They would love for the whole world to catch on fire, so they can start a drive against the match industry. They get ordinary people like you and me, all stirred up. They disturb our stability. Make us think things are of great concern to the community at large, which really aren't. They harm our digestion and make us grow old, worrying over things which we don't care about. They drive us. They are a menace. There ought to be some sort of "Black Flag" exterminator for googetters.

Bureau of Home Economics How often I am served with a baked apple that is not done or with one which is not attractive in appearance because the skin has burst and it has collapsed like a punctured ballon What is the answer? First of all buy apples which will bake well, the grocer will tell you if you ask him which of the apples in stock at the moment are the best for this purpose. In preparing them for baking, core the apples with a corer or with a knife but be sure to remove the seeds. It is very irritating to get a mouthful of sharp particles. There are two ways in which apples may be prepared so that they will keep their shape. A line may be drawn just through the skin around the center with a sharp knife or the apple may be pared for about one inch from the top. The fruit should be filled with sugar and spice after they are put in the baking pan, and enough water to cover poured around them. Sometimes the centers are filled with raisins or with nuts, and raisins and the sugar are put with the water. Corn syrup used instead of sugar will make a glazed apple. Another way of glazing is to sprinkle the top with sugar after it has baked until the sugar melts. For baking, apples should have a hot oven at first, about 450 degrees F. After fifteen minutes the fire may be lowered somewhat. Baked apples may be served hot or very cold, with plain cream cr whipped cream, or with a soft custard. Small baked apples make a delicious salad served on lettuce leaves and garnished with mayon-nalse.

No less astounding is the rapid progress this company has made in the state of Maryland under the able guidance of its state agent, William L.

Mr. Fitzgerald has not only had the foresight to offload the wonderful open office offered in the field of business by this organization which he represents, but has placed the force and influence of his great real estate organization back of the proposition with the result that it has the endorsement of most of the civic, religious and business organizations in the city, including the Baptist, Methodist and African Methodist Ministers' meetings. Such an institution as Mr. Fitzgerald represents must indeed merit the consideration and patronage of every member of the race who is loyal to his group, as it is only by the continued and consistent loyalty of the members of this character that the race as a whole can hope to move forward.

There came during that year a challenge to the cooperative spirit of the North Carolina Mutual, as pioneer in the Legal Reserve insurance field, to reinsure the company's business in Florida, amounting to $2,526,108.00, with the Afro-American Life Insurance Company of Jacksonville, Florida, and the business in Mississippi, Oklahoma and Arkansas, amounting to $7,486,734.00 with the Century Life ncy of managers and agents and im-rkansas, thus not only aiding development of these companies, but also effecting larger service and better supervision in the remaining eight states. The accrued reserve, amounting to $521,149.80, was paid over to these companies for the policyholders protection. During 1927, the company made a record increase of insurance in force in eight states and brought its assets again over the $3,000,000.00 mark, largely through increased efficiency of managers and agents and improved service of the Home Office organization. The company is now more substantial in every way. Cooperation, the keynote of the company, has again demonstrated its wisdom and reward, and the people at large are—as the company constantly plans and labors to have them be—the chief beneficiaries of this policy of mutual welfare. 1928 bids fair to be the company's biggest and best year. $1,032,620.59 819,822.61 "SEE A NORTH CAROLINA MUTUAL AGENT TODAY" is more than a slogan; it is the passport to positive protection.
